Answer:
cos(θ) = 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can think of this situation as a triangle rectangle (you can see it in the image below).
Here, we have a triangle rectangle with an angle θ, such that the adjacent cathetus to θ is 3 units long, and the cathetus opposite to θ is 4 units long.
Here we want to find cos(θ).
You should remember:
cos(θ) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)
We already know that the adjacent cathetus is equal to 3.
And for the hypotenuse, we can use the Pythagorean's theorem, which says that the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, this is:
3^2 + 4^2 = H^2
We can solve this for H, to get:
H = √( 3^2 + 4^2) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5
The hypotenuse is 5 units long.
Then we have:
cos(θ) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)
cos(θ) = 3/5
Answer:
0.1961
Step-by-step explanation:
Since these two probabilities are independent of each other, we can simply multiply them.
The probability that a voter will support the Democratic candidate for governor is 0.53.
The probability that a voter will support the Democratic candidate for attorney general is 0.37.
This makes the probability that a voter supports both Democratic candidates 0.53(0.37) = 0.1961.
Answer:
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 5x = -7
7x = -7
x = -1
By looking at it, I can tell the second expression is greater due to a a large postive number that's being added to it. Let's solve.
-12+6=-6-4=-10
-34-3=-37+39=2
So, -34-3+39 is greater.
23.44 / 20 = 1.172 rounds to 1.17 per lb <== this is cost per lb...this is telling u how much each lb of dog food costs
20 / 23.44 = 0.85....this is lbs per dollar....this is telling u that u r getting 0.85 lbs for a dollar
